Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a writer and an editor?

For us, writers create something from nothing and editors refine what you already have. However, for many projects, there is a lot of overlap. Editors today are so much more than glorified spell-checkers.

Editors can do pretty much any task related to publishing content in print or digital form. This includes writing/rewriting, entering data into XML schema, proofreading, copyediting, conceptualizing content, researching, transcribing, and project management. That's why it's crucial for us to understand your goals and content in order to develop the best mix. We can help you do this!

What exactly is a freelancer?

A freelancer is an independent contractor. You don't have to pay us payroll taxes, retirement, or any other benefits. In fact, we don't even have to step foot in your office.

We are experts at remote team environments, working with people across the country even though we're based in Columbus, Ohio.

What's your process?

We are proud to say we have never missed a deadline! Our pace is often faster than our competitors and the industry standards.

​

In general, we follow a typical editorial process that includes review cycles. However, our work is highly customized to your needs. Meaning, if you need us to work directly with your clients, we will. If you need us to conform to a 70-page project-specific style guide, we'll do that, too.

Who will I be working with?

In nearly all cases, you will work directly with Hilary. If others are brought into the project, they are highly-vetted by Dream Write Creative.

How do you determine your rates?

Due to the unique needs of each client, Dream Write Creative reserves the right to quote a rate based on services needed, schedule, and special requirements. We will do everything we can to find a solution within your schedule and budget. You will likely find that we beat industry-standard rates. Contact us for a free quote!
